The Primary for this year’s non-partisan elections is in progress. The Benton County Democratic Central Committee respects the non-partisan nature of these elections and is not endorsing any particular candidates. However, we feel that our supporters can and should be actively engaged in these elections. We encourage our supporters to amplify the messages from the candidates of their choice by means of letters to the editor, social media, and personal contact. We also urge our supporters to contribute funds and time to their chosen candidates.
We are beyond needing a single payer healthcare system that covers everyone. Let’s bring our signs and let our fellow citizens and elected representatives know that we’re no longer going to tolerate the high costs, medical bankruptcy, disability, and death our current system inflicts on us.
We will, of course, be outdoors. please observe appropriate COVID-19 protocols.
Citizens Climate Lobby is asking all of us to take action. We have a chance to get a carbon price (widely regarded as the most effective intervention for dealing with climate change) included in the reconciliation bill that is under consideration now. Please contact your senators and representative as outlined here.
